What Is a Lanai?
In Hawaii, a lanai is a covered outdoor area that’s often used like a second living room. Some are open-air, some are screened, and some are fully enclosed.
Enjoy More Outdoor Living—Rain or Shine
A lanai is one of the best parts of island living. It’s where indoor comfort meets outdoor beauty. Whether you're planning a new covered lanai, enclosing an existing one, or designing a screened outdoor space, the right design makes all the difference. Home Planning Hawaii helps you create a lanai that fits your lifestyle and the Honolulu climate—connecting you with designers who understand airflow, privacy, and how to make the most of every square foot.
Common Lanai Types:
- Covered lanai with a roof for shade and shelter
- Screened lanai to keep out bugs and debris
- Enclosed lanai with windows and doors for year-round use
